Encyclopedia Britannica



WHITING (Gadus merlangus)

This article appears in Volume V28, Page 609 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: WAT-WIL
WHITING (Gadus merlangus) , a fish of the family Gadidae, which is abundant on the shores of the
German
  Ocean and all round the coasts of the British Islands; it is distinguished from the other species of the genus by having from 33 to 35 rays in the first anal fin, and by lacking the barbel on the chin. The snout is
long
 , and the upper jaw longer than the
lower
 . A black spot at the root of the pectoral fin is also very characteristic of this species, and but rarely absent. The
whiting
  is one of the most valuable food fishes of northern Europe, and is caught throughout the year by hook and line and by the trawl. It is in better
condition
  at the beginning of winter than after the spawning season, which falls in the months of
February
  and
March
 . Its usual size is from 1 to 12 lb, but it may attain to twice that
weight
 .
